Monday we left around 9:30 am a went to Iron Mountain. On the way we stop at Fumee Falls. Then we stop at Pine Mountain where the Ski Jump is. That is where they practice for Olympics. While we was there we visited a Veteran Memorial that had been added to the grounds. After that we drove thru Iron Mountain and went over to Wisconsin in a small town (Kingsford) to have lunch and then back to camp.
